Photos and Description of the Saint-Andre-Les-Alpes vacation chateau / country house rental

Authentic 12th century Templar Castle set on more than 11 acres of fossil rich land, in the heart of Haute Provence, with a commanding 360 degree view over the turquoise waters of the Lake of Castillon and the towering mountains of the Verdon. Secluded on its own knoll, yet only 100 km from Nice and the Cote d'Azur, and two kilometres from the village of Saint Andre les Alpes, come and enjoy total luxury, in our officially rated four-star apartments. Ideal for three to four families, the castle has just recently had the addition of a huge 14m x 7m pool overlooking the lake which will provide everyone with hours of fun Within the château are three luxurious apartments, each with it’s own kitchen, living room, and at least one large bathroom per bedroom. All are equipped to the highest of standards. On the grounds of the Château stands the medieval church dedicated to Saint Martin, amid the ruins of houses that have blended with the wild limestone landscape.

The village hosts many small restaurants and coffee shops, and is thriving with activity: Provence markets and Local Arts and Crafts abound. The area is one huge playground, with all sorts of adrenalin sports available: canoe-kayak, white water rafting, the Verdon Gorges, hiking trails and lots of fishing in the stream that feed the vast lake of Castillon. Within 20km are the towns of Castellane, Entrevaux and Colmar-les-Alpes, all three fortified by King Louis XIV. During summer, the younger ones will be able to enjoy medieval fairs, pony rides and pedal boats on the Lake. During winter, just 30km from the castle, are the Riviera ski resorts of the Val d'Allos

Guest Book: 'We have really enjoyed our stay in your Chateau. It was a wonderful experience being in such a historic building set in beautiful countryside' Susan Christian New Zealand We had a wonderful trip (nearly 8 weeks) and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your lovely Chateau. You have done a lovely renovation and it is in an area of great beauty. We hiked all around the area and enjoyed the natural beauty of the area. We wished that we had booked 2 weeks with you Susan and Bill Friedmann, U.S.A. 'Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed the stay at the Chateau. Very few quibbles and the peace and isolation was much appreciated. All 5 of us enjoyed a paraglide and young Bernie very generously took my older two boys for a long session on the trail bike. The little beach was a godsend for a cooling swim each evening.' Stephen Malloy, Scotland. 'We greatly enjoyed our stay at the chateau, and it was a pleasure meeting you there. ‘Anja and Philip Garristen, The Netherlands.
